WATCH: Barry Odom shares special moment with Mizzou fans after big win at Florida
After last week’s collapse against Kentucky, and with another heartbreaking loss at South Carolina earlier this year, the pressure has been on Missouri coach Barry Odom all week.
Therefore, Saturday’s big 38-17 win over Florida in The Swamp was extra special for Odom, who badly needed a win.
As you can see below, after the game, Odom took time to shake hands with every Mizzou supporter left on the field before leaving the stadium:
Watch: There were lots of hugs and celebration as #Mizzou football coach Barry Odom got his first win over a ranked opponent. You can even hear a 'Barry Odom' chant from the fans.

Odom clearly enjoyed this win — the second year in a row the Tigers have dominated the Gators.
With three games remaining against Vanderbilt, Tennessee and Arkansas, the Tigers could realistically finish the year with an 8-4 record. However, it’s still important to note that without the collapses against South Carolina and Kentucky, this team could be looking at a 10-2 season.
